App Layout settings control the visual structure and navigation of the attendee app — including the bottom menu, quick links display, grid size, leaderboard grouping, and how featured content (speakers, exhibitors, sponsors, news) appears on the home screen.
How to access: Dashboard → Settings → Event Settings → App Layout

Group-wise Leaderboard Display — when on, the gamification leaderboard shows separate rankings per user group rather than one combined list. Participants see their ranking relative to their own group.
When on, this event is configured to use your branded white-label mobile app instead of the shared Eventify app. Requires a white-label plan. If this toggle does not appear, contact your account manager.
| Setting | Options | What It Controls |
|---|---|---|
| Speaker List View Setup | Toggle on = List view; Toggle off = Grid view | Default directory layout for the speaker list |
| Recommended Speaker | Don't Recommend / Recommended / Featured Speaker | How the speaker highlight box appears on the home screen |
Note: Speaker sorting (A-Z vs random) is configured separately under the Sorting category, not here.

| Setting | What It Controls |
|---|---|
| Exhibitor Drop vCard | Toggle on = disabled — prevents attendees from dropping their digital business card at exhibitor booths |
| Recommended Exhibitors | Don't Recommend / Recommended / Featured Exhibitor — how exhibitors appear on the home screen |
| Setting | What It Controls |
|---|---|
| Recommended Sponsors | Don't Recommend / Recommended / Featured Sponsor — how sponsors appear on the home screen |
To group sponsors by membership tier (Platinum, Gold, Silver), go to the Sorting category and enable Group Sponsors By Category.
| Option | Behaviour |
|---|---|
| Don't Featured | News items appear in the News section only |
| Featured News | A news highlight box appears on the event home screen |
Q: Where do I change Speaker/Exhibitor/Sponsor sort order?
Sorting settings are in their own dedicated Sorting category in the Event Settings sidebar, not in App Layout.
Q: What's the difference between "Recommended" and "Featured"?
"Recommended" shows a suggested list based on attendee interests and behaviour. "Featured" shows a fixed admin-selected highlight box at the top of the list screen.
Q: Does White Label App Access toggle affect existing attendees?
Yes, immediately. Attendees who have downloaded the shared Eventify app will need to switch to the branded app.
Q: What happens if I set Grid Size to 1?
Quick links display in a single-column full-width list. Best for events with few quick link items or where label readability is the priority.
